Dual arched doorways lead to the Kitchen/Family Room—the heart of everyday living and a hub for everyone to come together. Picture windows fill the space with natural light while framing views of the landscaped backyard. The skylighted Family Room invites you to relax and enjoy the warmth of the second natural gas fireplace, while a ceiling fan circulates heat throughout the room on those cooler island evenings. The sizable 4-piece Island Kitchen offers a fabulous, functional layout, easy-care tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, ample counter space, a modern black composite double sink, and abundant shaker-style hardwood cabinetry, including oversized pantry and storage cupboards. Enjoy quick snacks at the breakfast bar or in the light-filled Nook, or step through the sliding glass door to a large patio for dining al fresco. Perfect for quiet morning coffees and afternoons of relaxation, the patio looks onto a terraced and fully fenced backyard boasting sunny eastern and western exposure, grass for the kids and pets to play on, raised garden boxes to grow herbs and veggies, a Garden Shed, plus established gardens and mature trees. A hallway off the foyer hosts a generous Primary Bedroom Suite, complete with a large vanity mirror, a walk-in closet with built-ins, and a 3- piece ensuite with a shower and a built-in makeup area. Two additional Bedrooms, each with double closets, provide space for family, guests, or hobbies.
